I thought the news would be something completely different, very unexpected of them. I personally don't have a set opinion on U2, but I think it could be a good combination. It's sort of disappointing how people are already drawing conclusions about it being a terrible collaboration when they haven't even recorded the song yet.

The cause is a good one, but shit, Bono just.... I dunno... sucks... and bores me... and gives me the creeps... (and wtf is up with The Edge??)

BUT Green Day and U2 recording a song together is sure to raise a lot of money, which is a good thing.

I'm excited about it since I like both bands. Since Green Day is involved, it naturally has the potential to be awesome. Good cause too.

I still don't love U2 but I'm just glad we have a new(ish) song to look foward to in the (hopefully) near future. It's good it's going towards a good cause too, that's awesome.

have any of you listened to the song? its not mellow at all. very very out of character for U2. sounds exactly like something the sex pistols wold do. fast old school UK sounding punk. i think its gonna be good. i first thot they were writing a song together and thought it would be a typical U2 ballad, but this is gonna be badass.

Well, this is interesting… definitely not what I was expecting the big news to be, but interesting none the less. I honestly never imagined Green Day recording a song with U2. Mainly because Billie is a Bush basher while Bono is good buds with him… it just seems odd to me. I guess it''s nice they can look past politics and focus on music, though. I'm not really much of a U2 these days... I like a lot of their older music, but I just can't seem to get into the newer songs. But the guys seems to have a lot of respect for older bands and a lot of older bands seem to have respect for Green Day. The idea of them doing a video together kind of irks me, but I guess it could be worse... they could be recording a song with the Rolling Stones or something. But it is Green Day, and it is for a good cause, so that’s reason enough for me to give it a chance. I've got a feeling it will turn out to be pretty rad.

THAT would be interesting, with the Rolling Stones!! :lol:

i'm not big on U2 either, hopefully the Green Day sound will drown out Bono a bit :)

either way, it's for a great cause, and i salute them

Wow, nothing like what i was expecting.

I was thinking more along the lines of news that involved just Green Day, or something about just one of them.

Something a little more exciting then collaborating with U2.

But i dont mind U2, so it'll be interesting to hear

Hope it turns out good :thumbsup:

Haha, I know... I've been so excited to hear what the big news was going to be that I've actually been dreaming about it. For instance, last night I dreamt that they were going to announce that Mike was going to have another kid. Maybe that's why I find the real news to be not as interesting as I'd hoped... I was expecting child birth. :lol:

Agreed.

I don't really like U2 anymore, their newer stuff bores me so much. :bored:

Just like almost everyone this was not what I was expecting at all, but I think U2 is a great band and the song is for a wonderful cause. If Green Day is involved, it of course is going to be badass, awesome, and flat out rock.

I'm sorry I can't see anything on the thread that says it's been confirmed, since when has it been confirmed and how?

I think it's fuckin' awesome. U2 is a great band. I'm not a fan of them, though, but they have some good songs and I think Bono is wonderful.
